Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Participants With Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR)Maximum 8 weeksAn adverse drug reaction (ADR) was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to ANAEMETRO Intravenous infusion in a participant who received ANAEMETRO Intravenous infusion. A serious ADR was an ADR resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Relatedness to ANAEMETRO Intravenous infusion was assessed by the physician.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Clinical Response RateMaximum 8 weeksClinical response of ANAEMETRO Intravenous infusion was evaluated comprehensively at the completion of the observation period, being assessed as effective, not effective, or indeterminate by the physician based on clinical symptoms. Clinical response rate, which was defined as the percentage of participants evaluated as effective over the total number of assessable effectiveness analysis population, was presented along with the corresponding 2-sided 95% CI.
Clinical Response Rates by Target DiseasesMaximum 8 weeksClinical response of ANAEMETRO Intravenous infusion was evaluated comprehensively at the completion of the observation period, being assessed as effective, not effective, or indeterminate by the physician based on clinical symptoms. Clinical response rate, which was defined as the percentage of participants evaluated as effective over the total number of assessable effectiveness analysis population, was presented along with the corresponding 2-sided 95% CI. Participants assessed as effective by the following target diseases were counted to assess whether they contribute to the clinical response: anaerobic infection, infectious enterocolitis, amebic dysentery, and the infection with both infectious enterocolitis and amebic dysentery.

Primary

Number of Participants With Adverse Drug Reaction (ADR)

An adverse drug reaction (ADR) was any untoward medical occurrence attributed to ANAEMETRO Intravenous infusion in a participant who received ANAEMETRO Intravenous infusion. A serious ADR was an ADR resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly. Relatedness to ANAEMETRO Intravenous infusion was assessed by the physician.

Time frame: Maximum 8 weeks

Population: The safety analysis set comprised of participants who satisfied the inclusion criteria and had received ANAEMETRO Intravenous infusion at least once.

Clinical response rate, which was defined as the percentage of participants evaluated as effective over the total number of assessable effectiveness analysis population, was presented along with the corresponding 2-sided 95% CI.

Time frame: Maximum 8 weeks

Population: The clinical efficacy analysis set comprised of participants from the safety analysis set, excluding those with no information of clinical response or infections other than target disease. Participants evaluated as indeterminate (n=12) were excluded from the calculation.
